  • Thanks everyone for your help about my earlier question. You are all so lovely, I think this is my favourite thread! Headaches getting better, must have been trying to read this long thread and remember all the abbreviations, lol.

    What do people class cm that can only be described as snotty, on ff? My cervix is moving up, etc, and the cm's betting more abundant and stretchier, but doesn't class as watery or ewcm in my mind...?

    Before I get ewcm I get what i class as sticky cm for ff, based on the pics from the link on the first page. Whitish/opaque, and when I try and stretch it it stretches a bit and then breaks into globs on my fingers. Quite gelatinous. Hth

    Lemonmelon, fingers crossed it's a tlp!

    Good evening,

    6DPO and nothing is happening here...the whole TTC is a bit boring. The best bit is when we have to BD :j.
    No SS here just some crazy temps. Yesterday morning was 36.65C (97.5F) and today was 36.95C (98.5F)!!! I'm looking forward to see what happens tomorrow:D.

    I'm bit annoyed that I can see the FF charts gallery as I'm not a VIP member :mad:.

    I may have gotten the tiniest line on an IC this afternoon, am I deluding myself that its just a shy bean? I definitely had a BFN at 13 dpo...

    2ba3c Big hugs
    Lemonmelon :j:beer::j. Could you take a pic so we can see your test? :D

    Are pregnancy tests like OPK? My OPKs always had 2 lines on them but the test one was just a shadow but was there! Sorry for the damb question...

  • Thanks ladies, I held my wee for 4 hours this eve ( I was literally hopping by the end) and still only got a tiny shadowy line so I'll try a digi in the morning - no idea how I'm going to sleep :cool:


    Lilly - hugs for having to go to the doctor but hopefully you can get some answers

    BigZ - Good to see you back, hope things are going a bit better for you

    OPk's sometimes only have 1 line but mostly have 2, when they have 2 lines the test line has to be darker than the control line for it to be a positive.

    IC's are the same structure as OPK's infact they look the same except the coloured handle is a different colour lol. With the IC's if you get 2 lines even if the test line is light it's a positive. If your not using internet cheapies then 2 lines still means a positive lol but you can occasionally get evaporation lines meaning you read a negative test as positive which is why digital tests are so good as there is no guess work x

    Fingers crossed Lemon Melon.

    Also for those of you TTC, My mw has put me on a 5mg folic acid dose as she said ladies with a BMI over 35 need a higher dose, a higher dose is also given if there is a history of diabetes and epilepsy apparently so maybe if you are TTC and on the higher bmi scale it would be worth speaking to your GP about getting a higher dose.

    Also they recommend to take Vitamin D which I'd never heard of. x

    Thanks girls, but, Nicki, what if it's sticky AND snotty? :p

    Thanks lemonmelon, not really improved tbh, but trying to get through with the least war wounds possible :cool: Dh has turned to sleep to try and stop himself ruminating on/upsetting himself about the Mil situation :(

    A friend got married the same weekend as me, started ttc a couple of months before me and is now coming to the end of her pg, due a couple of weeks before my 30th (i feel like she stole my due date :o) She's a number of years younger than me too. I've struggled with her whole pg and haven't seen her since her first tri.:o She knows we're struggling with infertility, but hasn't always been the most considerate of people about her pg (even though she says she knows how it feels :cool:), and the other day I got an out of the blue fb event invite to her "baby shower" (i personally think they're a non-thing, Americanised, expensive and pointless, but each to their own ;):o) ....my heart sunk. :( There's no way I can go to it. No way. :( and every time someone writes on the event wall thing, I get another notification about it :(

    Something good has to come our way soon, surely...? :cry:

    Thanks Ikkle! I should test an IC today just to see how a negative looks.
    How are you feeling?Any morning sickness?

    Lemonmelon hope you get your BFP today.

    My 7DPO temp is very low!!!It doesn't mean anything as lots of ladies had low temp and no BFP at the of it. http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/200a5b

    Have a nice day ladies.
